Interview with a craftsman, “I like Tsushima's favorite place for the atmosphere”

This time I was able to hear from Mr. Kishioka, who is a managing director and a craftsman at Tsushima. -Is Mr. Kishioka always on this road? “At the age of 18, I went to society when I was a butcher first, then a car mechanic, 28 years since I got my current job.” – From a butcher! “Yes, I originally wanted to be a car mechanic and helped my relatives until then. I had the image that I was working on manufacturing and machinery. My parents were shoe craftsmen. I've been watching for a long time, so I think the image of my work has become a natural thing that silently goes to things. ”“ Speaking of that, I like to disassemble things from a young age and like home appliances. Lol I was so angry in this industry.I moved from a mechanic to a mold shop and came to Tsushima with the introduction of an acquaintance at that time. ” Was it there? “No. Lol I didn't know what the mold was like at all, and as soon as I entered it, I was really impressed with the idea that the lump of metal would look like this!” -What kind of company is Tsushima-san? “A friendly company. The place I like to work in teams is what I like the most in Tsushima. Even in the same process, people are not good at it, and the people who can make the best with machines are different. Because they understand each other, there is a trusting relationship as a team even if they are working silently.If someone is missing, they will make up for each other, so the work will never stop as a company. The president has made it. ”-What kind of work is Mr. Kishioka doing now? "Now I'm just drawing into the room and drawing! It's really painful!" Lol * Here, “This room was very comfortable before this time. A friendly atmosphere. Lol “I want to make things on-site after all! It's most fun when I keep moving my hands while thinking how I can do it according to the drawing. I usually make anything like fishing lures or rings.” What do you want to challenge? “I want to make and sell things. It ’s interesting if I can sell what I ’ve made. It ’s hardest to find the seeds, but I ’m going to come up with a lot of ideas on how to make and how to make it if there are any. [Editor's postscript] This is a company that cherishes the people involved, including business partners as well as employees and outsiders. Something urgently asked and helped ... That's why there is a reason why such customers come to Tsushima.
